come on, it may have an r&b vibe, but nothing on ARTPOP sounded (sonically) as anything you've heard before... it was like futuristic electronic music with an old soul.

Swine and Donatella are EXACTLY what we heard before...

Born This Way as an album was definitely ahead of its time in how it helped shape the way people in mainstream culture view LGBT issues. we only started to truly become accepted in the mainstream in the early 2010s, and BTW was the boldest step anyone in the music industry had taken help that happen.

The Fame also helped EDM to explode into the mainstream in the early 2010s. even though it wasn't the first EDM album by a mainstream artist (Confessions on a Dancefloor, Blackout, Good Girl Gone Bad, etc) it was the one that truly made it become massive and the new "trend" that every artist had to try out.

DWUW was way ahead of it's time, she could release it now and it would sound fresh. 

I'm getting fat and so is my bank

can anyone please explain HOW it was ahead of it's time? r'n'b was huge ten years before DWYW, as was R Kelly... and the sexual innuendos are almost an everyday occurrence in music.... I think Gaga fans just think DWY was something new because they don't remember hundreds of r'n'b hits that were huge ten years earlier.

Analysis of ARTPOP as something...out of this world 

Aura - incorporates Western (as in country and western), dub and industrial; lyrics are a dialogue between two women about freedom 

Venus - psychedelic techno pop about love, devotion and the universe 

Do What U Want - samples a futuristic beat from song about death, mixes it with early 90s Michael Jackson new jack swing R&B style-vocals, and utilises tropical house melodies in the prechorus and bridge (two years before it became mainstream) in a song with a double meaning.

Exactly. Out of this world. Ahead of the time.

If Miley's "Malibu" is any indication.... all of 'Joanne' was ahead of it's time. :hor:

but... how? you're just naming good tracks? gov hook is literally a doubled old school hip hop beat, judas sounds exactly like bad romance and incorporates ReDone's go-to production structure, DITD sounds like any 80's anthem that we've heard before. 

 

these three tracks are three of my fav tracks but saying they were ahead of their time just isn't right sis

And forgive me for thinking lyrical content mattered in making this decision.
